Annie's on the ledge after dark on Christmas Eve
Run and get the ladder if you can
Snowing hard, stormy seas, Annie's time is short
Run and get the ladder if you can
Like a strange Nativity scene
Mary and Joseph with Joshua in-between
Burning all the blankets, lighting up the night
Snowing hard, stormy seas, Annie's time is short
Run and get the ladder if you can
Annie feels the rocks pressing on her side
Run and get the ladder while you can
She was a New Yorker
With a Californian name
Now British Annie's found her fame
Annie feels the rocks pressing on her side
Run and get the ladder while you can
Save the family, save the men
Take them all inside again
Annie's on the ledge, Christmas morning light
Come and take her picture while you can
New Year's Day, Annie's gone, nothing more to do
Paint her name so everyone will know
Paint her name so everyone will know
